Review: This was called a flammekueches, but I’m rating it because it was basically a flat-bread pizza. The crust was a crispy flat bread (essentially a white pita). It had a few char marks. The sauce was pretty standard pizza sauce, though it seemed to have a little extra oregano. It had both mozzarella and …

O’Brien’s Roadhouse – Pizza
Review: I was expecting a smaller, thinner pub-style pizza, but what I got was pretty typical ottawa-style pizza. It featured the same sauce and cold-cut style pepperoni underneath the cheese as others in this style. I will say that the crust was a little bit lighter than I expected. Rating: 6.8/10
Lil Z Pizza – Pizza
Review: The crust was thin and quite crispy with some nice char marks. There were some thicker spots on the outer crust where the density made it a little hard to chew. The sauce was nice and fresh. I could have used a little bit more. There was a good amount of cheese and it …
Louis Pizza – Pizza
Review: The pizza had all the hallmarks of Ottawa-style pizza, which is not surprising since this pizza has been around for a long time and probably inspired many of them. The crust was eggy, a little puffy and quite crispy. The sauce was the same as the majority of local pizzas in terms of the …
Colonnade Pizza – Pizza
Review: The crust was thinner than I expected and had a nice amount of crisp. The toppings (mostly meat) were all kept small so that they would fit under the cheese. I’m sure they were of good quality, but they were difficult to distinguish from each other. The sauce was pretty standard “Ottawa-Pizza” style sauce. …
Cafe Chez Tache – Pizza
Review: The most interesting part of this pizza by far was crust which was nice and soft, but the edge was covered with sesame seeds which added some crunch and a bit of a nutty flavour. The pepperoni was that sandwich meat type, of which I’m not a big fan, and it was under the …
Pizza Papelli – Pizza
Review: The crust was reasonably soft and thin. The sauce was very light in flavour or maybe the pizza just needed more of it. Neither the pepperoni, nor the cheese was particularly flavourful. It was not a bad pizza but it definitely gave off some frozen pizza vibes. Rating: 6.2/10
Pie Squared Pizzeria – Pizza
Review: This pizza featured cup pepperoni and a nice amount of cheese. It was quite light on the sauce, but the sauce that was there was good. Ultimately, though, this pizza was all about the crust. I loved the chewy/salty sourdough crust, so much so that I wondered if I would have enjoyed the crust …
La Favorita – Pizza
Review: This was an interesting pizza in that it presented as a thin-crust Italian-style pizza, but it had a different flavour profile, more similar to “Ottawa-style” pizza. The crust almost seemed eggy and had nice crisp due to how thin it was. The sauce had a little spice, which was pleasant. There was a generous …
Del Piacere – Pizza
Review: This pizza was significantly larger than I expected. The thin crust was nicely crispy with a little bit of char, though I would have liked much more char. The sauce was good. The quality of the cheese was good and it was quite salty. I liked that the pepperoni was on top of the …
